[Master] Hello both of you
[Master] how is the leg Mike?
[Lisa] Hello :)
[Mike] Hey Lisa
[Lisa] Yes, how are you doing???
[Mike] it's getting better i suppose. really slowly though
[Lisa] Do you get to be on disability or do you have to work?
[Mike] i was working this week
[Lisa] getting better is really good news even if it is slow
[Mike] my room is a disaster. i haven't gotten a whole lot done moving at the speed i di
[Master] I thought that was why you are using pokemon to do the work for you?
[Mike] if that were the case i wouldn't have to be a teacher. i'd be a pokemon master
[Lisa] I have no idea what a pokemon does - i would have imagined they made more messes than they cleaned up
[Mike] they do everything!
[Lisa] learn something every day
[Mike] they are intelligent, so they take verbal directions. they just can't talk
[Master] anime Lisa
[Lisa] when they were really popular i tried to avoid them
[Mike] so the girl behind the counter at chik fil a was flirting with me. i swear she couldn't have been older than 16. now i've got don't stand so close to me stuck in my head
[Lisa] I know what one looks like
[Master] I have no clue other than anime and hundreds of them
[Lisa] lol to mike
[Master] at least she is not one of your students
[Mike] they have the video game, a card game, plus the aime and a manga. they're practically a way of life
[Mike] the kids were really excited when they came in yesterday to see pokemon on the walls
[Master] that is good
[Master] do you have crutches? or a cane?
[Mike] one straight up declared me his favorite teacher after knowing me for two minutes
[Mike] crutches
[Master] you need a cane and a long white beard
[Master] and really freak the kids out
[Lisa] it's just as easy to smack a kid upside the head with youe crutches as it is a cane
[Lisa] or are you not allowed to do that?
[Mike] lol. not even close
[Master] but nothing says wizard like a cane and beard
[Mike] i wish i could grow a beard. i'd grow one like zz top
[Master] pick one up at the store
[Lisa] a beard? lol
[Mike] when i get old i want to grow a beard and move to the southern apalachians
[Mike] but i can't grow the beard, so i'm afraid all the other mountain men would mock me
[Lisa] can you do big bushy sideburns?
[Mike] nope. my hair is thin
[Master] Imari XP award: 500. Next level in 6152.
[Master] Branwyn XP award: 500. Next level in 111418.
[Master] you could go with the total bald banjo look
[Lisa] oh well. you'll just have to retire in florida or something
[Mike] i don't want to retire here! i want to retire up north.
[Lisa] I want to retire in the northwest somewhere
[Master] Oregon
[Lisa] not really
[Master] because of all the clouds, she will not sparkle
[Lisa] more montana idaho or colorado
[Master] I think of those as the Mountain states, not the Northwest
[Master] and then you will have to deal with bears
[Mike] i don't believe there's anything west of the mississippi
[Master] LOL
[Mike] it's all a myth
[Lisa] that would be nice
[Lisa] I live in the mystical state of California where the freaks and mutants roam freely
[Lisa] mythical
[Master] I think both apply
[Lisa] not sure why the typo became a real word
[Mike] i know i guy who lived in california for eight months
[Mike] he hated it. said the state was run terribly. what's your opinion?
[Master] oh man
[Lisa] the state is run terribly
[Lisa] but I was born here and always lived here so it is home and a little hard to hate
[Lisa] it just is what it is
[Lisa] but I would like to reduce expenses when I retire and it is really expensive here
[Mike] and the new milage tax on your car is coming up
[Lisa] lol
[Master] did you see the Tesla announcement today?
[Lisa] no
[Mike] nope
[Master] all Model S no matter how old it is now
[Master] gets a new 8 year unlimited milage warrenty
[Mike] are they making affordable cars?
[Master] they are coming
[Mike] that's cool. they're really trying to make the electric car a thing
[Master] it is crazy
[Lisa] don't want a tesla unless it will drive for me
[Lisa] I want google car
[Master] that is coming too
[Mike] lol
[Master] I told Lisa, but Mike did you hear about the BMW self driving car?
[Master] they were testing it in Germany
[Master] had to stop
[Master] kids learned that the car would stop automatically
[Master] so they were hiding in bushes and then
[Master] JUMP out in front of the car
[Master] as they were testing it on the streets of a small town
[Mike] lol. i saw on top gear they had an suv that slammed on the breaks when the guy was parking it because it felt it was too close to the bushes
[Mike] so he showed the other guy how the auto brakes work and rammed the other guy's car. the breaks didn't engage for the car.
[Master] oh man
[Lisa] wow
[Lisa] who made that car?
[Mike] mazda
[Lisa] they still make cars?
[Master] LOL
[Master] I have a dealer on the corner
[Mike] they were okay with it, though. they hate suvs, or as they call them in egland apparently, caravaneers
[Master] so Mike did you read the site today?
[Master] see Shurkal's theroy that it is the cloak
[Mike] nope
[Mike] what cloak?
[Master] the cloak makes the person
[Master] Red Cloak
[Mike] so red cloak is the cloak
[Mike] like The Cloak
[Mike] someone is ripping off marvel
[Master] chuckles
[Master] I have no clue
[Master] just wanted you to be aware of the conversations happening there
[Master] I will use the rest room as you two organize your thoughts on the matter
[Master] Imari and Indigo can discuss what they think they should do about this
[Master] I am away from the keyboard.
Lisa is receiving the map Inkling...
Lisa has received the map Inkling.
Mike is receiving the map crossroad...
Mike has received the map crossroad.
[Mike] not sure where we are at, but apparenlty we're still on the road
[Lisa] yes
[Mike] so if indigo asks imari's opinion, she'll suggest we keep walking
[Lisa] we came upon a little village where everyone had been turned into zombies
[Master] I am back at the keyboard.
[Lisa] we killed all the zombies and looked at carnage in all the houses
[Lisa] met lady in a cloak - was it red bob?
[Master] yes
[Lisa] she and Leatherus spent a night alone in one of the houses while the rest of us took another one
[Mike] was she evil?
[Lisa] Qui's detect evil check came back positive
[Lisa] but he didn't tell us right away
[Lisa] lizardmen came in the night to steal our horses
[Lisa] we woke them up and leatherus was sleeping on floor all tied up
[Lisa] but lady red cloak - Oriel came and helped us get our horses back
[Lisa] so now we know but she hasn't hurt anyone and helped us last night so opinions on the matter vary
[Mike] someday i want to try my hand at lawful evil
[Mike] apparently my personal alignment is chaotic neutral
[Lisa] so we start in the morning - Indigo locked up the scroll again but we haven't talked to Oriel yet or officially left the village to move on
[Lisa] Indigo and Branwyn are chaotic good
[Lisa] chaos is good
[Mike] chaotic good is a pretty easy one. lawful good is a tough one to play. at least for me.
[Mike] too boyscout makes me go a little crazy
[Lisa] unless that was your goal and you had a paladin or something
[Master] and in other breaking news, they just indited Rick Perry in Texas
[Master] A grand jury indicted Texas Gov. Rick Perry on Friday for abusing the powers of his office by carrying out a threat to veto funding for state prosecutors investigating public corruption — making the possible 2016 presidential hopeful his state’s first indicted governor in nearly a century.
[Master] just came over the wire
[Master] sorry
[Master] back to alignement issues, grins
[Mike] lol. that's awesome
[Lisa] didn't he set up an anti-corruption panel and then said you can investigate everyone except me?
[Mike] so do you feel safe just the two of us continuing?
[Master] that was NY
[Master] yes
[Mike] should we questions the npc?
[Lisa] everyone is corrupt
[Master] you have not talked with Oriel yet
[Master] #anyoneelse
[Master] we are starting a PAC Mike
[Lisa] smiles
[Master] anyone else
[Mike] i'm surprisingly not corrupt at all i've found. as mean and nasty as i can be, i just always seem to balk at taking advantage of people.
[Mike] if i'm going to be mean or manipulative i tend to just go do it out in the open
[Master] so talking with Oriel?
[Master] or Indigo and Imari want to ahve a conversation first
[Mike] I am back at the keyboard.
[Lisa] that is the nicer way to do it
[Imari (Mike)] "Who are you?"
[Imari (Mike)] how many days to the next full moon?
[Master] checking
[Master] 4 full days
[Master] night of the 5th day
[Master] it is the 20th, it will happen on the night of the 25th
[Indigo (Lisa)] (just in time for us to get home)
[Master] so Indigo and Imari are on this side of the street talking
[Master] Imari moved 194'01".
[Master] Artiark moved 177'09".
[Indigo (Lisa)] Indigo moved 19'11".
[Imari (Mike)] "Indigo, I think I should make you a new talisman soon."
[Imari (Mike)] "This one is looking old and beat up. I wonder if I can make a better one now with my own feathers."
Indigo (Lisa) looks down and fingers the one he is wearing "What's wrong with this one?"
[Indigo (Lisa)] Won't that hurt?
[Indigo (Lisa)] Pulling out your own feathers
[Imari (Mike)] "I would think it would be like fulling out a few hairs."
[Indigo (Lisa)] So just a little then
[Imari (Mike)] "These things to get worn. Everything has its season. Do not feel bad. I will take care of you."
Indigo (Lisa) smiles "Thanks Imari!"
[Imari (Mike)] "Now, should we see about this mystery person?"
[Indigo (Lisa)] I was going to ask Oriel if she wanted to come with us but now I don't know if that would be a good thing.
[Indigo (Lisa)] You should meet her and see what you think.
[Indigo (Lisa)] I didn't think she was bad at all ... but then she didn't tie me up last night.
TMO has joined the game on Fri Aug 15 19:52:01 EDT 2014
TMO is receiving the map Inkling...
[Indigo (Lisa)] (nice timing tmo!)
TMO has received the map Inkling.
[Imari (Mike)] ::walks up to the woman:: "Who are you, and what are you doing here?"
[Oriel (Master)] My Name is Oriel
[Oriel (Master)] I am helping save you
[TMO] (I'm going to reboot. My computer is running glacial)
[Oriel (Master)] Ask Leatherus,
[Imari (Mike)] Imari casts a spell against : Detect Magic - Priest: For 1 turn, I can detect magic in a 10'x30' path.
[Oriel (Master)] or ask Shurkural
TMO has left the game on Fri Aug 15 19:54:19 EDT 2014
[Imari (Mike)] anything on her glow?
[Oriel (Master)] (yes, she has a small pouch that glows and a necklace
[Oriel (Master)] looks like a holy symbol
[Imari (Mike)] what symbol is it?
[Oriel (Master)] Belinos
[Oriel (Master)] (can never remember if it is 1 or 2 L's )
[Imari (Mike)] "May I see your cloak?"
Oriel (Master) frowns
[Oriel (Master)] are you cold?
[Imari (Mike)] "Yes."
[Oriel (Master)] well then we could build a fire
[Oriel (Master)] or take a cloak from one of these newly abandoned houses
[Oriel (Master)] why would you want my cloak?
[Imari (Mike)] "But I wish to see yours."
[Imari (Mike)] "To check something."
Oriel (Master) holds out a fold of the cloak
[Oriel (Master)] (does not take it off)
[Imari (Mike)] "Remove it, please."
[Oriel (Master)] What do you wish to check?
[Oriel (Master)] I did not ask for anyting in return for helping save your horses
[Oriel (Master)] what is the concern you have?
[Imari (Mike)] "Whether you will take it off and hand it to me." ::gestures behind her back pointing at Indigo, and circling he rfinger around toward Oriel::
[Imari (Mike)] "I will give it back, unharmed."
[Oriel (Master)] give me your feather token in exchange,
Indigo (Lisa) looks at Imari's gesture confusedly
[Oriel (Master)] I know you value that
[Indigo (Lisa)] Good morning Oriel?
[Imari (Mike)] ::frowns:: "Very well."
[Oriel (Master)] Good morning Indigo
Oriel (Master) unfastenes her clasp
[Imari (Mike)] ::makes a circle with her finger again::
[Oriel (Master)] holding the cloak in one hand,
[Oriel (Master)] holding out her other for the token
[Imari (Mike)] ::makes the exchange::
Oriel (Master) looking at the token
Indigo (Lisa) makes a circle with his finger
[Imari (Mike)] ::studies Oriel for a while::
[Oriel (Master)] brings it up to her nose and smells it
[Oriel (Master)] touches it to the tip of her nose
[Imari (Mike)] "Does it smell good?"
[Oriel (Master)] You keep this very pliable
Indigo (Lisa) watches the two of them worriedly
[Oriel (Master)] most feathers rot and fall apart after a short time
Oriel (Master) looking at Indigo
[Imari (Mike)] ::It is a token of Partik. I care for it as need be."
[Oriel (Master)] you know that a priest should never give their holy symbol away correct?
[Imari (Mike)] ::holds out the cloak:: "Thank you."
[Oriel (Master)] that it puts them in great danger?
[Imari (Mike)] "Yes, it does."
[Imari (Mike)] of course, that's not her holy symbol, lolz to her
[Oriel (Master)] takes her cloak back
[Oriel (Master)] hands Imari back the feather token
[Lisa] I am away from the keyboard.
[Imari (Mike)] "What are you doing in a place like this all by yourself?"
[Oriel (Master)] tracking down the trail of the zombies
[Imari (Mike)] "Why?"
[Oriel (Master)] the undead are not to be tolerated
[Oriel (Master)] mindless
[Oriel (Master)] there is nothing holy about them
[Imari (Mike)] ::smiles slightly:: "Undead, or the mindless ones?"
[Oriel (Master)] I dislike Zombies and Skeletons particularly
[Oriel (Master)] I believe it an abomination
[Imari (Mike)] "Partik tells me that all undead are abomination."
[Imari (Mike)] "Once we die we should travel to the other side."
[Oriel (Master)] everyone should have free will
[Oriel (Master)] to do as they chose
[Imari (Mike)] "I am told that you are evil, yet you abhor the undead."
[Lisa] I am back at the keyboard.
[Oriel (Master)] Those that fear freedom from rules and restrictions attribute that to evil
[Indigo (Lisa)] That's what I said
[Indigo (Lisa)] well not that
[Indigo (Lisa)] the thing before that
Oriel (Master) smiles at Indigo
[Oriel (Master)] you believe in free will for all?
[Oriel (Master)] that no one should be forcing you to follow a particular path?
[Imari (Mike)] "I am not understanding. People who are afraid of freedom make you evil?'
[Oriel (Master)] there are many people in this world that insist on rules
[Oriel (Master)] that everyone follow a particular path
[Imari (Mike)] "I do believe in free will, yes. An unwilling servant makes for a poor one. Better a man build a good hut, than hunt poorly."
[Oriel (Master)] but I think that we should all have the choice in what we do
[Imari (Mike)] "Is that one of the tennants of your god?"
[Imari (Mike)] the one after david?
[Indigo (Lisa)] Unless you are really bad and turn a whole town of innocent people into zombies. You shouldn't be free to do that.
[Oriel (Master)] I agree that Zombie are an abomination
[Oriel (Master)] (after david?)
[Imari (Mike)] "Anyone has the freedom to choose that Indigo. Free will does not mean there are not consequences though."
[Imari (Mike)] david tennent, the doctor
[Oriel (Master)] (ahh, get it now)
[Imari (Mike)] "Just as we have the free will to kill that person."
[Oriel (Master)] Killing people without just cause
[Oriel (Master)] would that be evil?
[Oriel (Master)] or merely Chaotic?
[Oriel (Master)] Sir Indigo?
[Oriel (Master)] you are taking your prize back to the Queen
[Indigo (Lisa)] You can't just go running around killing people with no reason
[Oriel (Master)] do you think that is a good thing to do?
[Indigo (Lisa)] what prize?
Oriel (Master) knowing smile
[Oriel (Master)] Your thoughts give you away Sir Indigo
[Imari (Mike)] ::staps in front of Indigo:: "How do you know of this?"
[Oriel (Master)] As I said his thoughts give him away
[Indigo (Lisa)] You can read thoughts?
[Oriel (Master)] he is very concerned about the safety
[Oriel (Master)] That is a very challenging conversation Sir Indigo
[Oriel (Master)] I would not say that I can simply read thoughts
[Imari (Mike)] "Yes, he brings a prize to his queen. Does that knowlege turn you into our enemy? We already have one person wearing red hunting us. A second will have to be taken care of before we leave."
[Oriel (Master)] but for your purposes I will say that I can read what you have already thought
[Oriel (Master)] There is the twist in the skein
[Oriel (Master)] I do not know what you mean by that comment
[Oriel (Master)] who in red is hunting you?
[Imari (Mike)] "We only know him as Red Cloak. Which is why I wanted to inspect yours. Now, are you going to be a problem for us? Are you going to try and take his prize?"
[Oriel (Master)] Why would I do that?
[Oriel (Master)] It is Sir Indigo's
[Imari (Mike)] "Many would covet something simply because another sees it as a prize."
[Oriel (Master)] there is no reason for me to believe that it will be beneficial to me
[Oriel (Master)] he is free to believe what he wishes
[Imari (Mike)] ::relaxes a bit::
TMO has joined the game on Fri Aug 15 20:18:08 EDT 2014
TMO is receiving the map Inkling...
[Lisa] I am away from the keyboard.
[Imari (Mike)] "I do not believe it would be, either."
TMO has received the map Inkling.
[Oriel (Master)] I am unsure why it would be interesting to myself
[Imari (Mike)] "What is the domain of your god? I do not know that symbol."
[Lisa] I am back at the keyboard.
[Indigo (Lisa)] (sorry - keep getting work emails)
[Oriel (Master)] I am of the Kayugan Church
[TMO] (that should tell you how slow my pc is running. I came back asap)
[Oriel (Master)] (you should get that auto delete Lisa)
[Oriel (Master)] and that sucks TMO
[Oriel (Master)] I would be surprised if a barbarian priestess had a problem with other worshipers
[Oriel (Master)] I do not hunt your lands
[Indigo (Lisa)] Ohhhh..... that explains it.
[Imari (Mike)] "I do not as long as they do not harm me or mine."
[Imari (Mike)] "Partik is the god of travel, so I protect these who travel with me."
[Oriel (Master)] So you are traveling North
[Oriel (Master)] what are your intentions towards me Sir Indigo?
[Indigo (Lisa)] Intentions?
[Oriel (Master)] Your friends seem intent on questioning me
[Indigo (Lisa)] Nothing. I thought you were very nice and I wanted to thank you again for helping us last night.
Oriel (Master) smiles and nods her head at Indigo
[Indigo (Lisa)] They worry more than I do.
[Oriel (Master)] you are welcome
[Oriel (Master)] I am pleased to offer assistance to a Knight of the Realm
Indigo (Lisa) smiles "Thank you!"
[Imari (Mike)] ::frowns at Indigo:: "You should worry more."
[Shurkural]] (TMO) hangs out in the background, listening.
[Oriel (Master)] (all caught up TMO?)
Shurkural (TMO)] (I think so)
[Imari (Mike)] "This is why I must work so hard to protect you. I must worry and doubt for you and myself."
[Indigo (Lisa)] I worry about the tasks and I worry about you all but most people aren't as bad as people might think.
[Indigo (Lisa)] Or they are really bad and you can tell right away.
[Indigo (Lisa)] Where are you travelling to next Oriel?
[Oriel (Master)] Perhaps Sir Indigo has a future on the pulpit
[Oriel (Master)] words of wisdom to live by
Indigo (Lisa) laughs "No! I'm not any good at that stuff. You should meet Tristan. He's really good at that sort of thing."
[Imari (Mike)] ""Forget a new raven token. When next I am home, I will have to get you a coyote token>"
[Indigo (Lisa)] Coyote?
[Oriel (Master)] (?)
[Indigo (Lisa)] Isn't that like a wolf?
Shurkural (TMO)] (trickster, cunning)
[Imari (Mike)] isn't that the trickster god?
[Oriel (Master)] (snake)
[Imari (Mike)] damnit. i thought the snake was something different
[Oriel (Master)] 9and fox)
[Imari (Mike)] fox is probably what i was thinking of
[Imari (Mike)] i haven't gone over my gods in a while
[Oriel (Master)] http://www.dragonslayers-society.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php?n=Main.Shardik
[Indigo (Lisa)] Fox?
[Oriel (Master)] Confabulus the Fox is who you are thinking of
[Imari (Mike)] yup. let's pretend i said fox
[Imari (Mike)] the fox with the gay priests
[Oriel (Master)] lol
[Indigo (Lisa)] Do foxes protect people as good as ravens?
Oriel (Master) laughs
[Imari (Mike)] "They are trickier."
[Oriel (Master)] I do not think you want a fox to guard your henhouse Sir Indigo
[Imari (Mike)] ::taps Indigo between the eyes::
[Indigo (Lisa)] Because I am trickier to protect?
[Indigo (Lisa)] Hey!
[Imari (Mike)] "Indeed."
Indigo (Lisa) grins
[Imari (Mike)] ::turns back to Oriel:: "Forgive my continued suspicion, especially if you truly do mean us goodwill, but why would you just follow us because Indigo asked you to?"
[Oriel (Master)] I would not do it only because he asked me to
[Oriel (Master)] that would not be fitting
Indigo (Lisa) murmurs "All these animals are confusing. Tristan doesn't have any of those."
[Indigo (Lisa)] Where were you planning on going to next?
[Shurkural]] (TMO) watches each of the talkers curiously.
[Oriel (Master)] Who is this Tristan you refer to?
[Indigo (Lisa)] He's our friend and a great priest of Cahus
[Oriel (Master)] ahhh
[Indigo (Lisa)] He is off battling evil priests of Hades so he couldn't come with us.
[Oriel (Master)] that is fitting for a warrior such as you
[Oriel (Master)] Hades are not of the Kayugan faith
[Oriel (Master)] I did not think you were a warrior of Cahus though
Shurkural (TMO)] (and I rather liked my 'possessed by the Red Cloak' idea. ;) )
[Oriel (Master)] (grins)
[Indigo (Lisa)] Well I'm a warrior for the Queen if anything.
[Oriel (Master)] be careful who you have faith in Sir Indigo
[Indigo (Lisa)] But I like Cahus. He's a good god.
[Oriel (Master)] that it does not bind your choices
[Oriel (Master)] restrict your freedom
[Indigo (Lisa)] And so is Partik.
[Indigo (Lisa)] You have to have faith in someone.
[Indigo (Lisa)] Otherwise you just flail around
[Indigo (Lisa)] Procog is okay but he never sees nice things so I don't quite like him so much.
[Imari (Mike)] ::chuckles::
[Imari (Mike)] brb
[Indigo (Lisa)] If you are going to spend your time seeing things you might as well look at something nice every once in a while.
[Oriel (Master)] LIfe is full of new things
[Indigo (Lisa)] So you still haven't said where you were going next?
[Indigo (Lisa)] (and she really doesn't seem to want to answer that question)
[Indigo (Lisa)] (tmo - did you see above? Mike did get her cloak off :) )
[Oriel (Master)] I do not have a goal I have an adjenda
[Oriel (Master)] my plan is to stop who ever created these zombies
[Indigo (Lisa)] Isn't that the same thing?
[Oriel (Master)] a goal is a place you reach
Shurkural (TMO)] (Lisa - I saw it. Oh well, another theory pretty much blown out of the water)
[Indigo (Lisa)] like the one who created the zombies?
[Oriel (Master)] I do not believe that I will ever stop all zombies but I intend to do what I can
[Indigo (Lisa)] So you just wander around looking for zombies?
[Indigo (Lisa)] (is she a ranger/priest?)
[Oriel (Master)] There has been a problematic outbreak of them
[Oriel (Master)] along this swath of countryside
[Oriel (Master)] so I am attempting to do what I can about that
[Indigo (Lisa)] That is a very good thing.
[Indigo (Lisa)] We will keep our eyes out for anyone who is doing this.
[Oriel (Master)] please do not hesitate to take care of any you see
[Indigo (Lisa)] I really don't want to walk into another village like this one again.
[Indigo (Lisa)] We will.
Oriel (Master) glances back over her shoulder at the house
[Oriel (Master)] I suppose that your friend will be leaving with you?
[Shurkural]] (TMO) smirks.
[Imari (Mike)] back
[Indigo (Lisa)] Well sure he will. I think he will. He is a follower of Tristan's and has been wanting to get home
[Indigo (Lisa)] Does he not want to go or something?
[Oriel (Master)] I do not know
[Oriel (Master)] it would be interesting
[Lisa] I am away from the keyboard.
[Oriel (Master)] Shurkural would you be interested in hunting with me?
[Imari (Mike)] is speak with dead yes and no questions only?
[Oriel (Master)] (the info is there will check(
[Imari (Mike)] i thought i remembered crazy death priest having conversations
[Shurkural]] (TMO) tilts her head. "It'd be interestting, but I've gotta stick with these folks. I'll do what I can to whittle down the zombies as I go though."
[Oriel (Master)] The number of questions that can be answered and the length of time in whichthe questions can be asked depend on the level of experience of the priest.Even if the casting is successful, such creatures are as evasive as possiblewhen questioned. The dead tend to give extremely brief and limited answers,often cryptic, and to take questions literally. Furthermore, their knowledge isoften limited to what they knew in life.
[Imari (Mike)] "Why haven't you asked them who is doing this?"
[Oriel (Master)] I do not have that skill
[Imari (Mike)] "Ah."
[Lisa] I am back at the keyboard.
[Imari (Mike)] ::uses her once a day power to speak with dead::
[Oriel (Master)] (on who? you burned the zombies)
[Imari (Mike)] oh. didn't know that
[Imari (Mike)] lame
[Imari (Mike)] super lame
[Oriel (Master)] there is the dead mule
[Indigo (Lisa)] (sorry - we had such a big pile of them it seemed like a good idea at the time)
[Oriel (Master)] but the lizardmen killed that
Shurkural (TMO)] (could try asking a lizardman)
Shurkural (TMO)] (just in case)
[Indigo (Lisa)] (does anyone understand lizard?)
[Oriel (Master)] (have to speak the language, )
[Oriel (Master)] (see Lisa knows magic :) )
[Indigo (Lisa)] (oh sure enough to know there are rules for everything)
Shurkural (TMO)] (so long as the rules make our lives harder, that is. ;) )
[Oriel (Master)] (so anything else? just parting ways? o rinviting her to follow you?)
Indigo (Lisa) turns back to Shur and Imari and whispers "So do you think we should ask her to come with us? Or a bad idea?"
[Oriel (Master)] ( I do love the image of Indigo standing there talking with her then suddenly turning around and whispering to the people next to him about her)
Shurkural (TMO)] (subtle and tactful are not halfling warrior skills)
[Imari (Mike)] lol
Indigo (Lisa) looks for a sign of what to do
Indigo (Lisa) thinks Qui's head will probably explode if he sees her in the wagon later
[Imari (Mike)] "It is your journey. You decide."
[Indigo (Lisa)] (tmo looks like he is typing?)
[Shurkural]] (TMO) shrugs. "I'm torn, sugar. Could be good, could be bad. I could argue both ways and make decent points. Truth is, I'd be making most of it all up, and nobody could tell."
Shurkural (TMO)] Flip a coin?
Indigo (Lisa) shoulders drop and he turns around
Shurkural (TMO)] (we're helpful!)
[Indigo (Lisa)] Well, we should get going now. I don't want to ask you to come with us and make you lose sight of you go ... agenda. But you have helped us and you are welcome to travel with us if you would like to. We are heading towards the Jistelle Estates.
Oriel (Master) bows to Indigo
[Oriel (Master)] Thank you Sir Indigo
[Oriel (Master)] but I think the rules and restrictions of Court would not suit me well
[Oriel (Master)] I sometimes eat my peas with my spoon and not a fork
[Shurkural]] (TMO) scratches her head trying to figure that one out. Most of the conversation has been over her head anyways, but that one was just weird.
[Indigo (Lisa)] Most of the time you have to push peas around with your finger to get it onto the fork anyway. At least when no one is watching.
Oriel (Master) nods smiling
Shurkural (TMO)] I like carrots better.
[Indigo (Lisa)] I didn't mean you have to come all the way to Jistelle. Just if you are travelling in our direction you are welcome to come with us if it pleases you. I think you are good company.
[Oriel (Master)] Thank you Sir Indigo
[Oriel (Master)] I am pleased to have made your aquaintence
[Indigo (Lisa)] And you can just stab carrots. They're easy.
[Indigo (Lisa)] It was nice to meet you too
[Oriel (Master)] warm chuckle, I think that is what your Lady Branwyn does best,
[Oriel (Master)] stab things that is
Indigo (Lisa) bows
Oriel (Master) bows
[Oriel (Master)] may your travels be interesting
[Shurkural]] (TMO) tries to remember if she's seen Branwyn stab carrots.
Indigo (Lisa) looks up quickly "you were reading thoughts again!"
[Indigo (Lisa)] (test)
[Oriel (Master)] warm laugh
[Oriel (Master)] farewell Sir Indigo
[Indigo (Lisa)] (lost connection for a sec)
[Indigo (Lisa)] Farewell Oriel!
[Master] Oriel moved 178'04".
[Shurkural]] (TMO) raises a hand in farewell.
[Master] pity that Eric did not make it in for the farewell
Shurkural (TMO)] See ya, sugar. Have fun.
Indigo (Lisa) turns back again "See! I thought she was nice."
Shurkural (TMO)] (maybe she'll come visit him at Jistelle)
[Indigo (Lisa)] (yes was sad eric did not make it)
Shurkural (TMO)] Maybe nice, maybe tricky. Always a gamble, but I think you picked right, honey. If she turns out to be nice, maybe we'll run into her again some day.
Shurkural (TMO)] But if she's tricky, best she's not sitting at our camp when we're asleep.
[Master] so by that logic Red Cloak must be a great guy
Shurkural (TMO)] (7 Reason - what do you want, Descartes?)
[Master] grins
[Indigo (Lisa)] It's too bad it wasn't the cloak. We could have just burned that.
Indigo (Lisa) calls out loudly "Jilly! Come on! We have to go now!"
[Jilly (Master)] Secodn Breakfast is almost done!
[Indigo (Lisa)] Ohhh.... but can I eat it on the horse?
[Indigo (Lisa)] We have to go or we'll be here all day.
[Jilly (Master)] I suppose so
[Jilly (Master)] someone will have to carry the pot
Shurkural (TMO)] Leatherus.
[Jilly (Master)] the porriage is nice and warm
Indigo (Lisa) sighs
Shurkural (TMO)] He can dream he's holding Oriel in his lap.
[Indigo (Lisa)] It will have to go in the wagon
[Jilly (Master)] I suppose no one will miss it right?
[Jilly (Master)] if we just take it with us?
[Jilly (Master)] do you thik we shoudl leave something for it?
[Jilly (Master)] in case the owner comes back?
[Jilly (Master)] like if they just ran into the woods when the zombies came
Indigo (Lisa) shakes his head "No one's coming back I'm afraid."
[Jilly (Master)] they might not like to find their pot missing too on top of all the zombies
[Jilly (Master)] I know I would not be happy at all
[Jilly (Master)] to find my best pot gone
[Indigo (Lisa)] (LOL)
[Jilly (Master)] and can you imagine what Koorin would be like?
[Jilly (Master)] I do NOT want to be in the same village when she finds out
[Indigo (Lisa)] I think the lady of the house would want us to have it in exchange of taking care of all the zombies.
[Jilly (Master)] and you did not even try some of it Indigo
[Jilly (Master)] really?
[Jilly (Master)] I guess that is a nice payment for taking care of all those nasty zombies for her
[Jilly (Master)] but maybe you can leave her a note?
[Indigo (Lisa)] Really. You have a spoon?
[Jilly (Master)] of course!
[Jilly (Master)] hands Indigo a spoon
[Jilly (Master)] you could tell her that we will take care of her pot
[Jilly (Master)] and we will bring it back as soon as we can
Indigo (Lisa) takes a big spoonful of porridge and gulps it down
[Jilly (Master)] and that by the way the back leg of the trivet is broket
[Jilly (Master)] broken
Shurkural (TMO)] (we'll send it back by overknight delivery)
[Jilly (Master)] but I used one of those gold coins you found to balance it
[Jilly (Master)] so it all worked otu ok
Indigo (Lisa) hands her back the spoon "That is really good! Now put it in the wagon."
[Jilly (Master)] beams, thank you Indigo
Indigo (Lisa) gets up on his horse and starts to move out into the street
[Indigo (Lisa)] Indigo moved 35'03".
[Jilly (Master)] (and yes we noticed that TMO just not blocking you for it ;) )
Shurkural (TMO)] (didn't even get any groans. Couldn't have been that good)
[Indigo (Lisa)] (noticed what?)
[Indigo (Lisa)] (I missed it sorry)
[Master] overknight delivery
[Indigo (Lisa)] (is laughing late bad?)
[Master] not at all
Shurkural (TMO)] (is Shur on horse or wagon?)
[Indigo (Lisa)] (talking with jilly requires all my concentration)
[Master] you have 6 horses
[Master] LOL
Shurkural (TMO)] (I'll take any pity laughter you want to send my way)
Shurkural (TMO)] ;)
[Master] you do not have enough teenage girls in yoru life LIsa
[Indigo (Lisa)] (I was one - that was enough)
Shurkural (TMO)] (I have an almost-4-year-old. Sometimes that's bad enough)
Shurkural (TMO)] (how many horses pull the wagon?)
[Master] two
[Indigo (Lisa)] (we have lots of characters - they can be riding the horses if you want the wagon with jilly)
Shurkural (TMO)] (6 horses, 2 pull wagon, so up to 4 with riders, and Artiark. 7 characters with us right now, so 1 person has to ride in the wagon besides the driver, or walk)
[Indigo (Lisa)] (yup)
Shurkural (TMO)] (Shur will ride in wagon - she could shoot arrows that way if necessary)
Shurkural (TMO)] (since she doesn't have riding)
[Indigo (Lisa)] (and the wagon is where the porridge is)
[Indigo (Lisa)] :)
[Indigo (Lisa)] (is mike still here?)
Shurkural (TMO)] (What? No! That had nothing to do with it! >_>)
[Master] he has been very quiet

[Imari (Mike)] how exactly are they swinging at me with an ex when i'm flying?
[Indigo (Lisa)] (these guards are very irritating)
[Master] I thought you were on the ground
[Master] are you still on Art?
[Imari (Mike)] nope. i said art took off to get above bow range
[Master] then only one Init for Art then
[Imari (Mike)] yeah
[Master] so Imari does not get an separate Init then
[Master] so what does Art do?
[Imari (Mike)] okay.
[Master] Imari moved 53'11".
[Imari (Mike)] well now that he's flying around can i use the spiritual hammer?
[Master] range?
[Master] short bows go well over a hundred yards
[Master] you said you wanted to be up out of bow range
[Imari (Mike)] dunno off hand. not in the spell description

[Master] you can fly down closer yes
[Master] you cannot be out of their bow range and in yours
[Master] unless you have a long bow
Shurkural (TMO)] (Shur will take her shot after Imari, since fighting has broken out)
[Master] she can take it now
[Indigo (Lisa)] (didn't one of them yell to stop attacking?)
Shurkural (TMO)] (not even if she's shooting straight down?)
[Master] yes one of the guards did yell that
[Indigo (Lisa)] (I really don't like these guys)
Shurkural (TMO)] (apparently it's mutual)

[Imari (Mike)] but i'm shooting down
[Imari (Mike)] they're shooting up
[Master] yes to Mike
[Imari (Mike)] technically my range down is unlimited, and their range up would be less than seventy five yards
[Master] but you will still be at an extreme range modifier for that
[Imari (Mike)] then i guess i'll just circle and watch
Shurkural (TMO)] (do those actually hit? Range increment going wrong way?)
[Master] the second one did if that is wrong
[Master] but I thought we fixed that?
[Master] man it is a mess tonight
[Indigo (Lisa)] (I like my swords - just whack what is in front of you and no worries)
Shurkural (TMO)] (not sure of the math offhand. I'll take them both if you like. :D)
[Master] if the minus 2 is supposed to be a plus 2 the second hits, but let me check
Shurkural (TMO)] (should be AC 5 and AC 7)
Shurkural (TMO)] (thaco 16, +1 to hit, so 15. Rolled 12, -2 for range, so AC 5. Same math puts #2 at AC 7)
Shurkural (TMO)] (we fixed Ilero's magical flail bonus to hit. apparently nevre fixed range modifiers)
[Master] and the guards are AC 4
[Master] so both misses
Shurkural (TMO)] (drat finkies)
Shurkural (TMO)] (done)
[Master] so new round
[Imari (Mike)] he needs all the stuff i made for finglass
[Imari (Mike)] i had range circles and automatic modifiers with them i think

[Guard #4 (Master)] yes
[Imari (Mike)] circling
[Guard #4 (Master)] Ok, so then Indigo adn Shur
Indigo (Lisa) lowers his swords but doesn't drop them
[Shurkural]] (TMO) hums to herself as she maintains aim at Guard #4.
[Indigo (Lisa)] You should be careful of who you attack on the roads, You might not like who you find. Wor are you and what do you want?
[Indigo (Lisa)] (click)
[Guard #4 (Master)] Just trying tio make some money sir
[Indigo (Lisa)] (who)
[Guard #4 (Master)] (one of the guards)
[Guard #4 (Master)] you did attack us first
[Guard #4 (Master)] without even asking how much
[Imari (Mike)] oh kill them. they're bandits in your kingdom
[Imari (Mike)] or at least arrest them
[Indigo (Lisa)] Attacked or flew over? I don't see any injuries until after you shot at Artiark.
Shurkural (TMO)] (have a quarterstaff fight with the leader in the river)
[Guard #4 (Master)] you flew at us
[Guard #4 (Master)] of course we shot at you
[Indigo (Lisa)] You have good weapons for down on your luck fighters. Where are you from?
[Guard #4 (Master)] err her
[Guard #4 (Master)] Here Sir
[Guard #4 (Master)] and we just use our axes and bows Sir
Indigo (Lisa) sighs "It's a hippogryph. Of course it flies"
[Guard #4 (Master)] nothing good comes from teh skies
[Guard #4 (Master)] have you ever seen anything in THe Mist that comes at you like that that is good?
[Indigo (Lisa)] Lots of things. We all live in the Mist and we aren't all monsters.
[Guard #4 (Master)] but we don't fly
[Imari (Mike)] they hurt artiark. kill them
[Guard #4 (Master)] it ain't natural
[Indigo (Lisa)] Anyway, what do you charge for passing
[Guard #4 (Master)] We were going to settle for 3 silver for your group
[Indigo (Lisa)] That's reasonable.
Indigo (Lisa) walks back to the wagon to get the silver
Guard #4 (Master) guards look uneasily at each other
[Imari (Mike)] are you serious?
[Indigo (Lisa)] Jilly, get me 3 silver from the pack please. We are going to pass.
[Imari (Mike)] they are illegal bandits. not actual tax collectors of the realm
[Imari (Mike)] ::lands again::
Indigo (Lisa) yells back "Can you move those trees now?"
[Jilly (Master)] here you go, do you want some copper or all in silver?
[Imari (Mike)] "Indigo, you shouldn't pay them. They are ciminals in your kingdom."
[Master] Guard #3 moved 5'10".
[Master] Guard #3 no longer targets Indigo.
[Master] Guard #1 moved 4'07".
[Master] Guard #1 no longer targets Indigo.
[Master] Guard #2 moved 15'02".
[Master] Guard #4 moved 20'07".
[Indigo (Lisa)] 3 silver. Let them fight amongst themselves now,
Jilly (Master) grins
[Indigo (Lisa)] Just go nice and slowly on by them and you'll be fine.
[Jilly (Master)] hands over three coins
Jilly (Master) nods
[Indigo (Lisa)] Thank you.
Indigo (Lisa) grabs his horse and walks by the wagon to the men
[Indigo (Lisa)] Indigo moved 4'05".
Indigo (Lisa) hand guard 4 who yielded first the coins
[Guard #4 (Master)] Thank you sir
[Indigo (Lisa)] "Careful next time. Others might not be so kind."
[Guard #4 (Master)] Yes Sir
[Guard #4 (Master)] Have a good day Sir
[Indigo (Lisa)] Sometimes nice things come from the skies.
[Imari (Mike)] "I should kill you for what you did."
Indigo (Lisa) gets back on his horse
Guard #4 (Master) looks puzzled at the two contradictory comments
[Imari (Mike)] "I will come back here soon. If I find you I will kill you, You harass travelers unlawfully. Partik is not pleased. I will send you to the other side on his black wings."
Guard #4 (Master) knows for certain now that nothing good comes from the skies
[Indigo (Lisa)] (LOL)
[Imari (Mike)] "Heed my warning, scum."
[Imari (Mike)] ::glares at Indigo and takes off again::
Indigo (Lisa) sighs "I just can't kill everybody"
[Indigo (Lisa)] I just want to be home.
[Master] one last roll for the day
[Indigo (Lisa)] (mike's turn)
[Master] You are here Long Live the King moved 1'00".
[Imari (Mike)] i hate rolling dice
[Master] Mike make that check, grins
[Imari (Mike)] (d20) [1d20=5] 5
[Master] hmmm
[Master] we did that one already
[Master] let me see what I can come up with
Shurkural (TMO)] (someone mystical lady handing out magical weapons?)
[Master] a watery tart laying in puddles?
Shurkural (TMO)] (something like that, yes)
[Indigo (Lisa)] (lol)
[Master] well we will have to see how you deal with this
[Master] so you are riding along and Art and Imari flying above
[Master] spot a large ant mound near the roadway
[Imari (Mike)] look down your nose at the strumpet as you ride by
Shurkural (TMO)] (yo, ants! food back that-a-way!)
[Master] Time of Day: 05:48 PM. Day 20 Trall ___ se, Man {Early Spring} 20th, 343 SKR.
[Master] this is several hours after the roadblock
Shurkural (TMO)] (well, I didn't say it was close food)
[Master] and you are out of the thicker Mist
[Master] and into the Mist area that you are more used to
[Master] you feel lighter and more at ease here
Shurkural (TMO)] Oh thanks be..
[Master] so you know you must be only a few miles away from Ponce
[Master] but right now you have a huge ant nest in front of you
[Master] do you want to pause here till other peopel are in ?
[Master] this might be messy
Shurkural (TMO)] either is fine by me
[Indigo (Lisa)] (can we ride aeound it?)
[Master] not easily
[Master] they are near the roadway
[Indigo (Lisa)] (we must have been gone a really long time - didn't see any of this stuff on the way over)
[Master] you will have to either go near them or out into the rough off the path
[Indigo (Lisa)] (so we see this ahead - no surprise)
[Master] correct
Indigo (Lisa) looks at Shur "Well Imari and Art will be fine. They'll just fly over."
Indigo (Lisa) looks at Shur "Well Imari and Art will be fine. They'll just fly over."
[Indigo (Lisa)] (test)
Shurkural (TMO)] Yep. But the wagon won't be easy, honey. Wonder if we can set up a fire burn to keep them on one side and us on the other?
[Indigo (Lisa)] How fast do ants move? What if we just set the horses to go as fast as we can right on by them?
[Indigo (Lisa)] Fire would be good.
Shurkural (TMO)] Hmm.. Bet they could catch the wagon going off road.
[Indigo (Lisa)] What if we dumped the prridge on them so they would eat it and be distracted?
[Shurkural]] (TMO) chuckles. "Might work."
[Indigo (Lisa)] (my typing is horrendous - porridge!)
Shurkural (TMO)] (how big is the ant hole on top? 3 foot across, or 6 inches?)
Shurkural (TMO)] (ie - what size ants are we talking about fighting here?)
[Master] foot
Shurkural (TMO)] Wonder if Imari could fly low and drop a big rock in that hole? Might slow them down long enough for us to sprint past.
[Indigo (Lisa)] (I like that)
Shurkural (TMO)] Any ants outside might still come after us though.
[Indigo (Lisa)] Imari do you think Artiark could do that?
[Imari (Mike)] i doubt he could carry a very substansial rock
[Imari (Mike)] i'd say light a fire and use it as a barrier between you and the ants
Shurkural (TMO)] I'd send the wagon and horse through alone as fast as they could while we walked alongside and kept the ants off them.
[Imari (Mike)] insects generally don't like fire
Shurkural (TMO)] Do you have any magic that could do that? Otherwise we'd be here all day gathering fuel for it.
[Indigo (Lisa)] Okay. Jilly could drive the wagon through.
[Imari (Mike)] i can set up an anti vermin barrier
[Imari (Mike)] do these countn as vermin?
[Master] no
[Master] they are greated HD than that spell works on
[Imari (Mike)] i can calm a few dice worth of animals if any attack you
Shurkural (TMO)] Use that to protect the horses, then, I guess. They can't fight back as well as we can.
[Imari (Mike)] i can make six people/creatures invisible to them
[Imari (Mike)] well, i can do that four times
[Imari (Mike)] so i guess that's more like 24 creatures
Shurkural (TMO)] Horses and then us? And then we can just walk by, unless they come after the wagon.
[Imari (Mike)] for sixteen rounds
[Indigo (Lisa)] (and there's only 9 of us here)
[Imari (Mike)] okay. i'll cast on the party first, then the horses
Shurkural (TMO)] (+ 6 horses)
[Indigo (Lisa)] (so ants would see ghost wagon)
[Imari (Mike)] that way the party is visible first
[Imari (Mike)] dump the food
[Indigo (Lisa)] (on the ant hole?)
Shurkural (TMO)] Oh, bait. Good idea. Let me ind a good place to pour some of the porridge.
[Imari (Mike)] Imari casts a spell against : Invisibility to Animals: Up to (6) 6 target creatures are invisible to animals for (10+6) 16 rounds or until they attack.
[Imari (Mike)] Imari casts a spell against : Invisibility to Animals: Up to (6) 6 target creatures are invisible to animals for (10+6) 16 rounds or until they attack.
[Imari (Mike)] Imari casts a spell against : Invisibility to Animals: Up to (6) 6 target creatures are invisible to animals for (10+6) 16 rounds or until they attack.
Shurkural (TMO)] If they can't see me, on their hill would be a good place.
[Imari (Mike)] no. on the ground
[Master] I will check the spell description to see if it works on insects as well
[Imari (Mike)] dump it on the hill will probably count as an attack
[Indigo (Lisa)] Good things come to ants from the skies
[Imari (Mike)] insects are animals
[Indigo (Lisa)] porridge from heaven
[Shurkural]] (TMO) takes the pot of porridge and lays a trail from their hill leading away from the road.
[Imari (Mike)] they are the largest family in the ANIMAL kingdom
[Imari (Mike)] plus, they aren't a plant or mineral
[Indigo (Lisa)] That was really good porridge too. Hope the ants like it.
Shurkural (TMO)] I'll save some for later.
Indigo (Lisa) smiles hopefully
[Imari (Mike)] don't save any
[Master] yes I will say that works
[Imari (Mike)] it'll attract them
[Imari (Mike)] ::upends the kettle::
[Imari (Mike)] "Now go before my spell wears off."
[Indigo (Lisa)] Okay!
Shurkural (TMO)] Jilly, take the wagon and horses past quickly.
Shurkural (TMO)] Indigo, you 'n me walk the sides and make sure none of 'em get too curious.
[Indigo (Lisa)] All right.
[Indigo (Lisa)] Let's go.
[Indigo (Lisa)] (not sure where we are on the map to move in relation to said ant hill)
[Master] I understand what you are trying to do
Indigo (Lisa) walks with Shur along the road
[Master] I will say that yes you can avoid them with that
[Master] between the bait and the spells
[Master] you can manage to work your way past them
Shurkural (TMO)] (animals are usually easier to trick and avoid than sapient critters)
Shurkural (TMO)] (of course, most groups would have just charged in. ;) )
[Indigo (Lisa)] (we could have found dozens of those things at the nest)
[Master] times a dozen Lisa
Shurkural (TMO)] (ayup)
[Indigo (Lisa)] (branwyn cantripped a picnic to get away from some ants once)
[Master] Time of Day: 06:00 PM. Day 20 Trall ___ se, Man {Early Spring} 20th, 343 SKR.
[Master] Time of Day: 07:00 PM. Day 20 Trall ___ se, Man {Early Spring} 20th, 343 SKR.

[Master] you would be traveling in the dark for you are not sure how many miles
[Master] perhaps it is only 1 or 2 maybe 4 or 5
[Lisa] bummer - no prridge and probably camping again :)
[Master] now is when you would normally set up camp
[Lisa] we are almost back into the town every day section of the trip
[Master] you are about a mile or so past the ants
[Lisa] so we camp another night

[TMO] cool
[Lisa] that would be nice
[Master] so we are on track to wrap up everything early September
